down q bucket full to the square inch, but
the chap slept on and did not awaken until
he was soaked through. When he awoke
he felt his clothes and said: ''Sheems ash

then made break for home, with the wa

100000. Second, the income OF the
State to meet that ateXpenditure amount
ed to S2,300,000, showing dehclt OF
about $S00,000. AS an eXpedlent 10
meet the deficit Governor Foraker
issued his famous tax message OF April
G, 1886, recommending revaluatlon or
real estate. He recommended that IL
be done at once, without waiting for
the decennial reappraisement. FORAKER
attempts to explain this away Dy say
ing that the taxation is unequal upon
lands, but he says in his message that
the valuation of real estate rarely ex
ceeds IS per cent. and ranges downward
from that point as low as 25 per cent.

farmer in Ohio to-day but that com,

proprietor has been taxed in the past
